Mariah Carey has earned her divaship. She's been a successful singer for 20 years, has one of the best voices in the world and has worked hard for her success. Minaj has just started, we don't yet know if she has longevity, so Minaj is no diva to me, even if she acts like one.

so because Mariah is a "icon" it gives her a free pass to be Disrespectful to 1 of the biggest artist of 2012? No FOH Nicki stood up for herself and all of a sudden its a crime? Mariah was throwing jabs at her because she wanted to be the only female on the judging panel!

mariah of course nicki cant sing better than mariah.she sold more albums than nicki more experience in what the contestants needs to here from their arent any rappers on that show what can she tell them what they need to work on to better their voice not in the business long enough need an icon judge how can a rapper judge a singer. get rid of nicki give mariah an icon partner .it not how long ago she put out an album she has enough experience get her and that fowl mouth off tv to young and uses profanity on live tv

I think everyone needs to cut Nicki some slack I mean the girl is going to stand up for Mariah cause she was slating her in the papers saying she wasn't to be the only girl on the show well I am sorry but she can't just get her own way its a great experience for Nicki as she is new and she is learning on the way and obviously Nicki is going to argue back wouldn't everyone argue back to some unfair comments?

All American Idol did was ghetto the show up. While I dont particularly "like" either one of them, Mariah clearly has natural born talent. Nicki is just the latest trend in Pop music. A combination of LiL Kim and Lady Gaga!! She brings no talent of her own to the table…its actually quite sad.

Well that silly BITCH Nicki needs to keep the silly h o e gob shut and come back when she actually has a stellar career to back up her pathetic gob! Mariah is a DIVA and a DIVA FOR THE REASON OF OVER 200 MILLION RECORDS SOLD etc etc and small time pathetic loosers like MINAJ need to go clean some toilets and her sad gob out at the same time! LOOOOOOOOSSSSER…………….

Just because someone's a so called "ICON" doesn't give them the right to gloat 24/7 & be disrespectful !!! If Mariah's truly that great she'd let her work speak for itself & keep the slick comments to herself .

A friend of a family went backstage to a Mariah concert and they saw Mariah throw a tatrum because someone brought her a dasani water bottle rather than poland springs. The friend said they lost all respect for her as did I. Just because you have money and attention doesnt mean you can be a cruel. As i also remember Mariah attacked Enienem claiming he was obsessed with her. Enienem trashed mariah carey with his song and said he had recordings of her and then we never heard a word from Mariah about her again

Just because Mariah is an "icon" doesn't mean she can disrepect anybody she wants. She's just stuck up & wants everything her way. And Nicki did the right thing by standing up for herself! Don't get mad at Nicki because she stood up for herself . Mariah is clearly a stupid stuck up hoe .

Mariah is not a diva and she is not a queen she's a stuck up dumb bitch who thinks her career is more relevant than anybody else's. Yeah she had her time, now she needs to stop acting like she the queen and name dropping also making nicki feel like her career is worthless. Time machine bitches always talkin about the old days, aren't they? Silly ho. Nicki didn't just go crazy on her for no reason, and mariah couldn't say nothing because she's all about her looks and her money of course lmao she would get knocked da f*ck out!

Re: Trina – you must be crazy. Mariah A-list. Nicki is a rapper on her 2nd CD . Mariah is bigger than Britney Spears and Nicki wins female rap by default. Grammys vs. Bet awards you do the math…lol It doesnt matter whos on the radio today, wikipedia them both and see what u come up with

Mariah Carey's a stuck up nasty, sneaky little bitch, always has been always will be.
Frankly i'm disgusted by the ammount of people supporting Mariah and saying she has a right to behave like a diva, just because you have vocal talent does not give you the right to be a bitch to people and make stupid outlandish demands just because you think you're gods gift.

THIS IS NOT A FAIR DEBATE..NICKI WAS IN 2ND GRADE WAS MARIAH CAREY WAS FAMOUS, SO IS A BIT UNFAIR..IF YOU LOOK AT THE LAST 5 YEARS, THEN NICKI OUT DOES MARIAH IN EVERY DEPATMENT..NICKI'S LAST 2 ALBUMS HAVE GONE PLATINUM AND DEBUTED AT #1, MARIAH'S DIDN'T…NICKI HAD 10 SINGLES IN THE TOP 10 AND TWO #1'S, MARIAH'S LAST 9 SONGS HAVE FAILED TO CRACK THE HOT 100…NICKI PLAYED THE SUPER BOWL HALFTIME SHOW TO AN AUDIENCE OF 114MIL PEOPLE, THE LARGEST TV AUDIENCE EVER, NOBODY SAW MARIAH'S SUPER BOWL APPEARANCE…IF YOU ALL ARE GONG TO LOOK BACK TWENTY YEARS AGO TO MARIAH'S CAREER, THAT'S FINE, BUT THAT WAS 20 YEARS AGO…IF YOU ASK ANYONE TODAY, NICKI IS THE MORE FAMOUS, SUCCESSFUL AND FUN DIVA IN THE AMERICAN IDOL PANEL, NO CONTEST!!!

Re: Sandy – DON'T CALL NICKI FAKE…YES, SHE WEARS WIGS BUT IF YOU WANNA BRING DOWN TO "REAL" THEN LET'S….MARIAH CAREY HAS FAKE TEETH, WHICH BTW HER FATHER WAS SUING HER FOR THE COST BEFORE HE DIED-GOOGLE IT, HER TITS ARE FAKE, HER TAN IS FAKE, HER HAIR IS FAKE AND SHE HAD LIPO AND A FACE LIFT…DON'T CALL NICKI FAKE BECAUSE SHE'S 1000% MORE REAL THEN MARIAH!!!

Re: Marcell – with all do respect being a DIVA is something you earn after decades of work, not after 5 years. Nicki is just…. something that in 10 years will be forgotten. Even Katy perry is more relevant the Nicki and achieved a lot more then her. The worse for me was the desrespect Nicky showed towards mariah. In the video, we only see Nicki fight alone and curse alot. Nicki has nothing to stand for, Mariah has a whole carrer to speak for herself. If Nicki can't stand to hear mariah speak about that then i think that's jealousy. Nicki will be forgotten in a few years

I agree as a vocal teacher & Vocalist I have been a fan of Mariah Carey and her divaship for years. She's been a so successful and has worked very hard to do so. Minaj thou talented is a new comer, we don't yet know if she has the staying power, so Minaj thou a diva should act like one. If you would like to get some free tips on singing visit my web site at:

No doubt, Mariah is the biggest diva of all time. Why should be compare to Nicki, she's a low-class singer, disrespectful and unpretty. We all know that Mimi inspires the world by her songs, but to nicki, her songs are just trash , very annoying, noisy and no heart at all. Go Mariah ! remember your song "Can't Take That Away", they can't put you down of your being blessed and sweet

No one should be mistreated. Minaj should as a woman talk things out… Yelling dnt get your point across… If no one is agruing back with you then why are you still talking… That only make you look like your talking to yourself…. I'm not saying dnt stand up for yourself but something needed to be done outside of business… Now this make it so no one can really work with Nicki because of her loud inappropriate ways… Diva is an earned title and you throwing tantrums like a 3 year old is being a 3 year old

First off, i just want to say that they seem to be both snobby bitches..mariah yea she has a nice Voice but the bitch has mental problems she hated On jlo for how many years? Married Nick cannon (yes Nick cannon still cant believe that shit) & shes a has been by now. I dont get why she feels like she can act as retarded as she wants bitch u are not god so get over yourself.. And nicki your fame could be short lived so Watch your shitty attitude butt i would have definitly reacted the same way!

Re: minajfan – Umm exactly… "One of the biggest artists of 2012. Nicki Minaj needs some serious humility. Certainly wouldn't kill her. She's been famous for one year, and has zero humility. Let's check in with you in 15 years Nicki and see where you're at and who remembers your name. Mariah is seriously not being more disrepectful than her. Nicki acts and talks like she owns the place. I heard about this a while ago and thought I wouldn't take sides and wouldn't care. But then I saw the 2nd ep of the season and was like "really? Who the F are you?!!"

Re: Pissbot – mm exactly… "One of the biggest artists of 2012". As in one year. Nicki Minaj needs some serious humility. Certainly wouldn't hurt her. She's been famous for one year, and has zero humility or respect for the ones who made it bigger and loger than her on both musical and vocal talent. Ridiculous. Let's check in with you in 15 years Nicki and see where you're at and who remembers your name. Mariah is seriously not being more disrepectful than her. Nicki acts and talks like she owns the place. I heard about this a while ago and thought I wouldn't take sides and wouldn't care. But then I saw the 2nd ep of the season and was like "really? Who the F are you?!! Get down on earth. You're a trend, it tool Mariah 10years of success to get diva-ish"

Personnaly, I find Mariah Carey too stuck up. I'm happy Nicki Minaj has the guts to stand up to her. With that said, I think it's more of a Scam to get more viewers involve and as always, it will work. lol
Lovee Nickii <3
